Grindhouse bombed. Machete did not.

I understand that (although I saw it twice opening weekend :))... but I still find it funny in a way. It's good that an element from that movie gets to live on.

Well, if that truly is legitimate then they just lost ten bucks. RR has become a fucking parody of himself.

Lady Gaga? uh....ok. Sure...why not?

also the tweet from that pic
@Rodriguez
I just finished working with @LadyGaga on @MacheteKills , she kicked SO MUCH ASS! Holy Smokes. Blown away!

ie, this might be more then just a glorified cameo

So an exploitation movie that has Charlie Sheen and Mel Gibson in it is ok, but Lady Gaga is crossing the line?

Rather see Gaga than Lohan.

Re: Machete Kills - Robert Rodriguez, Danny Trejo
 
Well considering it's in the vein of an exploitation type flick...I don't see how having Gaga is bad. We had Lohan in the last one. This is an upgrade honestly.

Every update on this movie just makes me more and more excited to see it. It's shaping up to be bad ass.

Agree. I don't have a problem with her being in this as she will be doing her bit for laughs. NOTHING about this franchise indicates that it is anything more than "trash" you watch with a good alcohol buzz.

Re: Machete Kills - Robert Rodriguez, Danny Trejo
 
ive seen various people mentioning this is one of Alexa's first "adult roles". Did nobody see Repo the Genetic Opera?

Lady Gaga? okay... Sharon Needles should get a cameo then too.

Everyone's in this movie. I'm still waiting for the call from RR.

Well, define "right." I'm fine with his current output, children's movies aside. His adult material has always and still entertains me. I don't take them at anything more than face value.

Are people looking for depth in an RR film?

It seems like most people are expecting some Academy Award-winning masterpiece or something. This is Machete and he seems to be doing the casting just fine.

I'm one of the few people in the forum who had no problems with the first one, though. Lady Gaga is miles above Lindsay Lohan to me so I'm cool with that.

Sucks Seagal died at the end of it, though. I'd like to see him back.

Alexa Vega scantily clad and showing body.
